WHAT ARE THEY SAYING ABOUT US?
"It's just really amazing to see someone come out of their shell and blossom before your very eyes."
"You can mess up

"It was hilarious! I loved it so much, and I'm going to go to many more!"
"You support each other.
You learn to share focus, which means you have each other's backs."
"I can't think of a better way for a kid to spend their time."

2023 SUMMER camps
Camp ComedySportz® offers day camps for Elementary (rising 2nd-5th), Middle (6th-8th), and High (9th-12th) School students. We offer a fun, engaging, and interactive performing arts camp where students get to learn (or build on their) improv skills and make each other laugh. They’ll walk away with critical skills that will benefit them their entire lives: confidence, listening, teamwork, creative problem solving, and the ability to overcome obstacles, though they may be too distracted by the fun and laughing to notice that they are learning too.
No matter their experience level - brand new beginner or experienced stage performer - this camp is custom fit to students’ current skill level and needs in order to make new improv discoveries. And, because it is improv, no two weeks of camp are the same. The week culminates with a ComedySportz showcase for family, caregivers, and friends. Each camper also gets a cool free t-shirt.
Proof of COVID-19 vaccination(s) are required for all campers.
